The elections of the North Sea Republic begin at the end of the month. The process begins with campaign chat being open a week before the last day of the month, in the channel people announce their running for Chief, Hoyenah, or both, and include a short campaign message. The actual elections open on the last day of the month and are open for 24 hours. The North Sea Republic uses ranked choice voting, this is where you rank the candidates from first to last on how much you would like them in the government.

Emergency elections occur when a Hoyenah resigns or is impeached while in office, and can also occur when there isn't enough Chiefs when one is impeach or steps down. When a chief leaves office it goes down to the person who was next in line during the election, though when a Hoyenah resigns there is automatically an election. Typically with an emergency election there is a campaign chat open for 1-3 days, with a 24 hour election following. Normally an emergency election only occurs if there is over a week left in the month after they stepped down. Throughout the history of the republic there have only been 4 emergency elections.
